A

smoking

diet = bmi needs to be between 18 - 25, waist 102cm for men and 88 for women

moderate to vigorous exercise training for 3 or more times a weak for 30min

sexual activity : nitroglycerin prior to it , as there can be ischemia
erectile dysfunction more prevalent in patients with coronary artery disease.

lipid managemnt with statins

diabetes = hb1ac less than 7 percent

psychosocial factors

contraindication of ivabradine ?

A

arrythmic disroder
and braduycardic
severe HEPATIC DISEASE

if age over 75 an severe ranl failur needs to be with precaution

23
Q

what are the drugs inhibited with ivabradine ?

A
QT prolonging drugs 
macrolides 
anti hiv drugs 
antifungal drugs 
NON DHP
24
Q

what are the metabolic modulators ?

A

trimetazidine

25
Q

what are the inhibitors of slowly inactivating sodium current

A

ranolazine

26
Q

what are the side effects of metabolic modultaors (trimetazidine)

A

gastric discomfort

movement disorders

27
Q

what are the contraindications for trimtazidine?

A

termor
movemnet diroserds
severe renal impairment

28
Q

what are the drugs for prevention of myocardial infraction?

A

ANTIPLATELET DRUGS:
inhibitors of TxA2 synthesis-ASA

adenosine (P2Y12) receptor antagonist ADP inhibit platelet aggregation - clopidrogel , prasugrel , ticagrelor

HMG CO-A REDUCTASE INHIBITORS (STATINS)

DRUGS AFFECTING RAAS SYSTEM:
ACEI = enalapril , ARBS - valsartan

29
Q

when there is stable angina what are the steps the patient should take ?

A

should sit down (standing promortes syncope and lying down enhances heart work)

30
Q

which acts more rapidly nitroglycerin spray or tablets ?

A

spray

31
Q

what is the recommendation of the intake of nitroglycerin

A

the patient can take sublingual nitroglycerin every 5 until pain subsides or the maximum of 1.2mg in 15 minutes

32
Q

in order to minimse tolerance to nitroglyerin what should be done ?

A

8 hour nitrate free period and then use the minimum effective dosage

33
Q

what is the mechanism of action of beta blockers ?

A

reduce heart rate
reduce contractility
reduce AV conduction
ectopic activity

prolong diastole

34
Q

which drug can beta blockers go well with

A

DHP

35
Q

what is the mechanism of action in calcium channel blockers ?

A

DHP - vasodilation

non DHP - bradycardia and reduce contractility

36
Q

what are the other indication we can uses non dhp for ?

A

supraventricular tachycardia
hypertension
prinzmetal angina

37
Q

what is the mechanism of ivabradine

A

heart rate lowering by acting on the SAN

38
Q

when do we indicate ivabradine ?

A

chronic stable angina form and there inadequatley controlled heart rate by beta blokers reaching more than 60 bpm

39
Q

which drug can be used in combination with ivabradine ?

A

beta blockers

40
Q

metabolic modulators are used in combination with ?

A

beta blockers

41
Q

mechanism of action of ranolazine ?

A

reduces late sodium current facilitatimg calcium entry
calcium reduction = contractility ionotropic reduction
modify fatty acid oxidation
prolong QT

42
Q

what is the optimal risk to benefit ration in which ASA should begiven so no gastric problems arise ?

A

75-150mg/day

43
Q

what is the mechanism of action of statins ?

A

inhibt cholestrol synthesis in liver
increased expression of ldl expression on hepatocytes
therefor clearing of LDL-c from blood

decrease TG

mildly raise HDL

========
decrease migration and rpoliferation of vascular smooth muscle
decrease oxidative modification of LDL-c
decrease uptake of modified cholestrol by macrophages
decrease endothelila dysfuction
decrease CRP
increase fibrinlytic activity

44
Q

what are the side effects of statins ?

A
RARE but serious 
increas liver enzymes mildly 
increase creatine phosphokinase 
MYALGIA
myositis and rhabdomyolysis 
alzhiemer disease 

frequent but not serious ?
diarrhea
pharyngitis
rashes

45
Q

contraindication of statins ?

A

pregancy tetrogenic

46
Q

what are the drug to drug intercation of statins ?

A
never given with CYP3A4  inhibitors , 
fibrates and niacin because it can increase the risk of myotoxicity 
macrolides
non DHP 
calcum channel blockers 
amiodarone 
antiviral portease inhibotr - ritanovir
grapfruit juice 
genfibrosil 
immunosuppresant cyclosporin A
47
Q

ACE inhibitors are particularly given when ?

A

systolic ejection fraction is equat to or ore than 40 percent
diabetes
chronic kidney disease
hypertension

48
Q

when we have cardiovascular disease why do we not give nsaids and COX2 inhibtors for pain relief

A

associated with coronary heart disease therfore start of with asprin and paracetamol at the lowest dose

if nsaid needed - lowest dosage and shortest duration

49
Q

chronic preventionof prinzmetal angina is in the use of ?

A

CCB

long acting nitrates can be added and should be used at particular period of day with ischemia most likely occur to prevent nitrate tolerance

if still inefficient = clonidine

50
Q

PRINZEMETAL ANGINA SHOULD NOT USE WHAT DRUG ?

A

beta blockers = cause alpha adreneergic vasoconstriction
